it's a kind of silence of the lambs in reverse...
i've been thinking about that a lot, lately. partly because someone I knew who trained to junior doctor before switching to academics... for a while... he was (it seemed to me) fairly obsessed (I thought) with psychopaths... and i didn't think that hollywood psychopaths (of the hannibal lecter variety - but of other varieties as well) were psychologically plausible.
there is controversy about that, you see, about whether there are more... florid frontal lobe defects that are associated with lack of sociabe behavior... the idea of a psychopathic genius... i wasn't so sure... and the idea of a person who could display adequate sociality to get to train as a psychiatrist and practice for a number of years... that people didn't notice much earlier that something was wrong...
anyway...
in silence of the lambs the sounds of the innocents screaming because they were going to be slaughtered. and she ran away with / tried to save one... then the farmer was so angry she was taken away from that environment.
and i have the sound of children screaming outside my window. not because they are going to die but because they are forced to live. because their lives are so painful.
i don't have this picture of their living happy lives outside school lives with their mothers. they aren't like the lambs...
mass birth control (most humane) or a mass slaughtering... medication in their drinking supply?
i just need to stop them from screaming outside my window...
doign my best to run away...
looking at the 'options' i have to run to...
always with the potential noise problem. always... always the overcrowded screamers just outside my window. in all the properties i can afford. otherwise properties that aren't safe for me to commute to when it comes to where i need to go...
teh awful screamers are always centralised... placing themselves between you and where you need to go...
civilisation is so very fragile, here.
